This one is very important for my user (Venus). Please talk to Utkarsh or me if it ends up being a major issue, and we will defer to 4.5.

FYI, Copy/Paste was only designed to operate on the Filter/Source properties not display properties. I believe we can extend that to include display properties too. Should that be a separate option? What if the user only want to copy filter properties and not display properties or vice versa?

Had to think about it. :-)

In my mind, your question comes from a programmer's perspective. However, think like a user. I copy the state contained in the container called a filter, I paste the state into another container called a filter. What state should be copied for the whole filter? All of the state.

I feel this is sufficient granularity. If a user wants persistent state between calls, that's what the save properties is for.

The Properties Panel now has copy/paste buttons next to the headers for source "Properties", "Display" and "View". Users can use that to copy/paste values for the 3 entities separately.

The "Copy/Paste" context menu still only copies the source Properties. We can remove that entirely, to avoid the confusion.
